You don't have to fight crowds. I don't always understand the art but I do appreciate the work none the less. One of my favorite art museums is in Mount Vernon, IL. A small town in a economically distressed part of the state. It does have one of the best landscape art gardens I've seen. It's always a joy to go there. :) Thanks for sharing you lovely museum with us.

Just for your information - We got a buy one get one free pass for lots of the places we visit - it was free with a Gardening magazine back in May and I bought one for each for two of our sons so that they can get out and about bit more cheaply too! I love a bargain!!

It's much different from the museums around here, and I like how much glass they've used in the building.

It really made for awesome photo shots. I have to see the subject in a sculpture, I am not good at seeing what the artists were trying to show, That said, it looks like a great place to spend time, strolling around in those well kept gardens.<br />Yvonne xx Meggymayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15523023041456397683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-52005885400227681122016-07-27T01:12:10.568-05:002016-07-27T01:12:10.568-05:00Столько интересных растений! спасибо за экскурсию!...Столько интересных растений! спасибо за экскурсию!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00602541528771179816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-75077613600366358842016-07-27T01:11:56.340-05:002016-07-27T01:11:56.340-05:00It looks good, the gardens are fabulous, and free ...It looks good, the gardens are fabulous, and free entry on Saturdays makes it a great place to go for a stroll through the grounds and perhaps a look at the exhibits in the museum and a cup of coffee. There are some wonderful art museums in Düsseldorf, but too expensive for me to visit. Glad you had a good day out with Sally! Thanks for sharing the photos of the gardens and river, and yes, who wouldn't want those gardeners!?
